Abstract. Enophthalmos is a relatively frequent and misdiagnosed clinical sign in orbital diseases. The knowledge of the different etiologies of enophthalmos and its adequate management are important, because in some cases, it could be the first sign revealing a life-threatening disease. This article provides a comprehensive review of the pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of enophthalmos. The main etiologies, such as trauma, chronic maxillary atelectasis (silent sinus syndrome), breast cancer metastasis, and orbital varix, will be discussed. Its objective is to enable the reader to recognize, assess, and treat the spectrum of disorders causing enophthalmos. (Surv Ophthalmol 52:457--473, 2007. Ó 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

Orbital varix could be complicated by hemor- rhage or thrombosis. Hemorrhage is responsible for sudden pain and proptosis, oculomotor limita- tion, and sometimes visual loss. CT scan or MRI shows a diffuse intraconal extravasation of blood. Emergency drainage could be indicated according to the functional signs. The prognosis is very often benign. A particular clinical presentation may be pointed out and called the blocking syndrome. The patient presents with a sudden painful unilateral proptosis.

(Figs. 9aand9b). The skin is involved first and appears indurated. Ophthalmic manifestations may include the mentioned atrophy in the orbit and periocular region, sclerosis or inflammation of the eyelids, orbit, or globe.23,136,154,168,169,177 Serologic abnormalities may include anti-nuclear antibodies, anti-single-stranded DNA antibodies, and rheuma- toid factor. Eosinophilia may be present and may correlate with disease activity. A polyclonal IgG and IgM hypergammaglobulinemia may also be present and is found more often with severe cases and with clinical progression.173 According to histopathol- ogy, there are two phases: an early inflammatory phase with coarsened collagen bundles in the reticular dermis and perivascular lymphocytic in- filtrates, and a second late sclerotic phase in which the collagen bundles become hyalinized, replacing muscle and subcutaneous fat. Therapeutic man- agement options have included topical, intrale- sional, or systemic steroids; vitamin E; vitamin D3; phenytoin; retinoids; penicillin; griseofulvin; interferon-(x);128 D-penicillamine; antimalarials; colchicines; antiplatelet therapy; ultraviolet A phototherapy with or without psoralens; and surgery.80 One case of enophthalmos due to systemic scleroderma has also been described in the literature.93 In contrast to linear scleroderma, Parry-Romberg syndrome (facial hemiatrophy) is characterized by a disappearance of fat in the dermal and sub- cutaneous tissues on one side of the face.
